  2. So due to the crappy weather nothing done today. Although when the kiddies have gone to bed, I do intend on getting the induction pipe off my civic and rubbing it down ready for a paint. Currently chrome which isn't in keeping with how I want this engine bay to look.

    Thinking a minimal visual impact look. Won't be able to keep it lookin OEM but close. Don't want to go red or blue so will stick with the black and silver theme.

    Have a tin of satin black which will be used on the intake and it's a dark red cone which will probably be the only stand out colour. Everything else will be cleaned and where necessary re coated.

    Opinions?? Am I being old and boring?? Ha.

  3. I have started window tinting. Done the quarter panels. They look ok for the first try but still some bubbles left. I will try again hopefully with better results then it will be rear windows next and finally rear screen :)

     

    So ho long does the good stuff take to come? Looking forward to the stickers :D

    Fair play mate. How did you find cutting it out?? And did you use a heat gun to size in the curves??

  4. Get some more pics up mate lets see what I av missed out on lol! Did you knock him

    Down abit?

    Will get some more up tomorrow matey. Will make sure I get out there early enough so I don't loose the light!

    No didn't knock him down any .. Was as he described it and was cleaner than I thought it would be so was happy happy :-D

    Wow looks great mate. So tidy under the hood too.

    Don't laugh but I always use smooth peanut butter on the black plastics.

    Works great and lasts ages too. And @ £1.30 a tub will last longer than its use by date!

    Unless you get peckish while your cleaning.

    Cheers mate. She's certainly a clean one :-)

    Well that's definitely a new one!! Haha can see the theory behind it though. Suppose it's the oil base in it.

    May give it a go and put up some picks!! Ha

  5. she came up nice and clean and she looks like a nice tidy deck mate from  your pics, you must be well chuffed .

     

    Look forward to checking back on your progress as i love a deck and this looks like a good one...

    Yes I am mate :-D

    Can't wait to give her a proper clean... Clay Polish & waxing.

    Cheers :-) hopefully we'll make some decent progress reasonably soon :-)
